Oxidation of IAA is a major pathway to control auxin concentrations in Arabidopsis and, along with IAA conjugation, to respond to perturbation of IAA homeostasis. However, these regulatory mechanisms are still poorly investigated in conifers. To reduce this gap of knowledge, we investigated the different contribution of the IAA inactivation pathways in conifers. • Mass spectrometry-based quantification of IAA metabolites under steady state conditions and after perturbation was investigated to evaluate IAA homeostasis in bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/789420; this version posted October 1, 2019.

Putative Picea abies GH3 genes (PaGH3) were identified by a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis including Arabidopsis and basal land plants. Auxin-inducible PaGH3 genes were identified by expression analysis and their IAA-conjugating activity was explored. • Compared to Arabidopsis, oxidative and conjugative pathways differentially contribute to reduce IAA levels in conifers. We demonstrated that the oxidation pathway plays a marginal role in controlling IAA homeostasis in spruce. On the other hand, an excess of IAA rapidly activates GH3-mediated irreversible conjugation pathways. • Taken together, these data indicate that a diversification of IAA inactivation mechanisms evolved specifically in conifers.

An important level of regulation in auxin responses is the establishment of concentration gradients between cells and tissues (Vanneste & Friml, 2009; Ljung, 2013). Thus, it is critical for plants to tightly control differential auxin distribution, both at spatial and temporal levels. Metabolic and transport mechanisms jointly generate auxin gradients within tissues (Ruiz Rosquete et al., 2012; Ljung, 2013). Auxin transport depends on the differential localization of influx and efflux carriers at the plasma membrane, providing the plant with a carrier-driven mechanism that controls auxin directionality and distribution within tissues (Vanneste & Friml, 2009). Additionally, auxin levels are regulated via the balance between the rates of auxin biosynthesis and auxin inactivation, extending the complexity of the regulatory network of cellular auxin homeostasis (Ljung, 2013; Kramer & bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/789420; this version posted October 1, 2019.

The predominant auxin found in plants is indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Multiple auxin biosynthetic pathways that rely on tryptophan (Trp) as a precursor have been proposed. The elucidation of these biosynthetic pathways demonstrated that IAA is locally produced and not ubiquitously, as it was earlier assumed (Normanly, 2010; LeClere et al., 2002; Zhao, 2018). Evidences for a Trp-independent pathway for IAA biosynthesis also exist but this pathway is less understood (Ljung, 2013; Zhao, 2018). The reduction of the cellular levels of free IAA also relies on auxin inactivation mechanisms, such as conjugation and degradation. IAA can be conjugated to various amino acid, peptide, and sugar moieties. Auxin conjugates might function as short-term intermediates that can release free IAA upon hydrolysis when required (LeClere et al., 2002; Ludwig-Müller, 2011). IAA can be reversibly conjugated via ester linkages to glucose by UDP-glucosyl transferases to produce indole-3- acetyl-1-glucosyl ester (IAGlc) (Jackson et al., 2001). Members of the GRETCHEN HAGEN3 (GH3) family of acyl amido synthetases mediate conjugation of IAA with amino acids (Staswick et al., 2005; Westfall et al., 2011). IAA amino acid conjugates are regarded as either reversible or irreversible IAA metabolites based on in vitro activity and in planta feeding assays (Östin et al., 1998; Kowalczyk & Sandberg, 2001). Conjugation to particular moieties, such as aspartate (Asp) and glutamate (Glu) to produce indole-3-acetyl-L-aspartic acid (IAAsp) and indole-3-acetyl glutamic acid (IAGlu), seems to lead to degradation (Östin et al., 1998; Tam et al., 2000), whereas IAA conjugates with other amino acids (e. g., alanine, leucine or phenylalanine) are transient storage compounds that could be hydrolysed back to free IAA via auxin amino acid conjugate hydrolases (Kowalczyk & Sandberg, 2001; LeClere et al., 2002). The oxidation of IAA into oxindole-3-acetic acid (oxIAA) is one of the major catabolic pathways to inactivate auxin (Östin et al., 1998; Peer et al., 2013; Pěnčík et al., 2013). Recent findings demonstrated that the DIOXYGENASE FOR AUXIN OXIDATION (DAO) protein, a 2- oxoglutarate-dependent-Fe (II) dioxygenase, catalyzes conversion of IAA to oxIAA (Zhao et al., 2013; Porco et al., 2016; Zhang et al., 2016). oxIAA can be further glucosylated to oxindole-3-acetyl-1-glucosyl ester (oxIAGlc) (Östin et al., 1998; Kai et al., 2007). The characterization of these metabolic pathways together with the identification of the key components of the auxin conjugation and degradation machineries have significantly improved our understanding of their respective contribution to the regulation of auxin homeostasis. For example, metabolic profiling of the loss-of-function dao1 mutant showed bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/789420; this version posted October 1, 2019.

Very interestingly, the levels of IAA conjugates, such as IAAsp and IAGlu, were found to be much higher in the dao1 mutant than in wild-type plants and the accumulation of these IAA metabolites was associated with an increase of GH3 gene expression in the dao1 mutant (Porco et al., 2016). These findings demonstrated that DAO1 acts in concert with GH3 genes to maintain optimal auxin levels, and thus the regulation of IAA homeostasis by these auxin inactivation pathways is redundant (Stepanova & Alonso, 2016; Zhang & Peer, 2017). Additionally, differences in enzyme kinetics and expression levels between DAO and GH3 suggested that DAO, having much slower enzyme kinetics compared with GH3 proteins, contributes to maintain constitutively basal auxin levels under normal growth conditions, while GH3 rapidly responds to environmental factors that increase cellular IAA levels (Mellor et al., 2016; Stepanova & Alonso, 2016). Although the majority of the knowledge about auxin metabolism is based on Arabidopsis thaliana studies, the conjugation and oxidation mechanisms seem to be present also in many other species (Cooke et al., 2002; Ludwig-Müller, 2011; Zhang & Peer, 2017). Analysis of endogenous IAA metabolites in cyanobacteria, algae and bryophytes revealed that free IAA and its primary catabolite oxIAA contribute the most to the total auxin pool in these species (Drábková et al., 2015; Žižková et al., 2017). IAAsp concentration was close to the detection limit in algae and cyanobacteria under normal growth conditions, while exogenous application of radiolabeled IAA led to accumulation of IAAsp and IAGlc in green algae (Žižková et al., 2017). IAA amino acid conjugates were not found abundant in bryophytes and only IAAsp and IAGlu were detected in some species, if present at all (Drábková et al., 2015). Ester-linked conjugates, such as IAGlc and oxIAGlc, were also present in liverworts and mosses but they did not contribute considerably to the total pool of auxin (Drábková et al., 2015). In gymnosperms, it has been postulated that the two different categories of IAA conjugates

It’s how nature creates itself, on every scale, the snowflake and the snowstorm. — TOM STOPPARD, Arcadia, Act 1, Scene 4 (1993) Much has been written about evolution from the perspective of the history and biology of animals, but significantly less has been writ- ten about the evolutionary biology of plants. Zoocentricism in the biological literature is understandable to some extent because we are after all animals and not plants and because our self- interest is not entirely egotistical, since no biologist can deny the fact that animals have played significant and important roles as the actors on the stage of evolution come and go. The nearly romantic fascination with di- nosaurs and what caused their extinction is understandable, even though we should be equally fascinated with the monarchs of the Carboniferous, the tree lycopods and calamites, and with what caused their extinction (fig. 0.1). Yet, it must be understood that plants are as fascinating as animals, and that they are just as important to the study of biology in general and to understanding evolutionary theory in particular.

The available mt genomes of 18 liverwort accessions representing nine genera and five orders are syntenous except for Gymnomitrion concinnatum whose genome is characterized by two rearrangements. Here, we expanded the number of assembled liverwort mt genomes to 47, broadening the sampling to 31 genera and 10 orders spanning much of the phylogenetic breadth of liverworts to further test whether the evolution of the liverwort mitogenome is overall static. Results: Liverwort mt genomes range in size from 147 Kb in Jungermanniales (clade B) to 185 Kb in Marchantiopsida, mainly due to the size variation of intergenic spacers and number of introns. All newly assembled liverwort mt genomes hold a conserved set of genes, but vary considerably in their intron content. The loss of introns in liverwort mt genomes might be explained by localized retroprocessing events. Liverwort mt genomes are strictly syntenous in genome structure with no structural variant detected in our newly assembled mt genomes. However, by screening the paired-end reads, we do find rare cases of recombination, which means multiple concurrent genome structures may exist in the vegetative tissues of liverworts.

    Shaping the Evolutionary Tree of Green Plants: Evidence from the GST Family

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Shaping the evolutionary tree of green plants: evidence from the GST family Received: 15 June 2017 Francesco Monticolo1, Chiara Colantuono1 & Maria Luisa Chiusano1,2 Accepted: 5 October 2017 Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are encoded by genes belonging to a wide ubiquitous family Published: xx xx xxxx in aerobic species and catalyze the conjugation of electrophilic substrates to glutathione (GSH). GSTs are divided in diferent classes, both in plants and animals. In plants, GSTs function in several pathways, including those related to secondary metabolites biosynthesis, hormone homeostasis, defense from pathogens and allow the prevention and detoxifcation of damage from heavy metals and herbicides. 1107 GST protein sequences from 20 diferent plant species with sequenced genomes were analyzed. Our analysis assigns 666 unclassifed GSTs proteins to specifc classes, remarking the wide heterogeneity of this gene family. Moreover, we highlighted the presence of further subclasses within each class. Regarding the class GST-Tau, one possible subclass appears to be present in all the Tau members of ancestor plant species. Moreover, the results highlight the presence of members of the Tau class in Marchantiophytes and confrm previous observations on the absence of GST-Tau in Bryophytes and green algae. These results support the hypothesis regarding the paraphyletic origin of Bryophytes, but also suggest that Marchantiophytes may be on the same branch leading to superior plants, depicting an alternative model for green plants evolution. Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are enzymes encoded by a ubiquitous gene family in aerobic species, able to conjugate electrophilic xenobiotics and endogenous cell components with glutathione (GSH)1.
  • Evolution of Land Plants P

    Evolution of Land Plants P

    Chapter 4. The evolutionary classification of land plants The evolutionary classification of land plants Land plants evolved from a group of green algae, possibly as early as 500–600 million years ago. Their closest living relatives in the algal realm are a group of freshwater algae known as stoneworts or Charophyta. According to the fossil record, the charophytes' growth form has changed little since the divergence of lineages, so we know that early land plants evolved from a branched, filamentous alga dwelling in shallow fresh water, perhaps at the edge of seasonally-desiccating pools. The biggest challenge that early land plants had to face ca. 500 million years ago was surviving in dry, non-submerged environments. Algae extract nutrients and light from the water that surrounds them. Those few algae that anchor themselves to the bottom of the waterbody do so to prevent being carried away by currents, but do not extract resources from the underlying substrate. Nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, together with CO2 and sunlight, are all taken by the algae from the surrounding waters. Land plants, in contrast, must extract nutrients from the ground and capture CO2 and sunlight from the atmosphere. The first terrestrial plants were very similar to modern mosses and liverworts, in a group called Bryophytes (from Greek bryos=moss, and phyton=plants; hence “moss-like plants”). They possessed little root-like hairs called rhizoids, which collected nutrients from the ground. Like their algal ancestors, they could not withstand prolonged desiccation and restricted their life cycle to shaded, damp habitats, or, in some cases, evolved the ability to completely dry-out, putting their metabolism on hold and reviving when more water arrived, as in the modern “resurrection plants” (Selaginella).

Altogether forty seven species from five taxonomic The charophytes prefer alkaline water environment which Divisions of algae and cyanobacteria including one of them forms on the carbonates that are very distributed in studied macro-algae Chara gymnophylla A. Braun were revealed in region. This alkaline freshwater environment can be assessed the Milkha stream. Chara was found in growth in the lower as perspective for find new, unstudied aquatic objects in part of studied stream but away from community in followed which can be identified charophyte algae.
